Had another lovely shoot with Mollie

Editorial styles & film noir & hoops was the plan for the day.

Mollie followed instructions very well & pulled off some lovely poses for each set.

Mollie is always a pleasure to work with. Turns up on time & we always have a great shoot.

Recommended by me & can't wait for our next creative event, which will hopefully be at our new studio.

Had another lovely shoot with Mollie at my studio.

This time we had a catwalk fashion style shoot & put Mollie through her paces with some freestyle flow posing which was really fun to do.

We had a variety of outfits from Mi Amor Clothing from printed dresses, to glossy latex looks & then finished the day with a creative gothic empress style look, complete with headress & blackbird :)

Mollie is always great fun to shoot with, always got a smile & great enthusiasm for a shoot.

She usually brings her mum along as driver to get to her shoots & as we have shot a number of times, I would say she is more of a friend than a chaperone.

She is very respectful of the photographer & never interferes with a shoot. She is very helpful with outfit changes & we always look forward to having them both at the studio.

Thank you again for a lovely shoot - recommended.

I had another shoot with Mollie yesterday.

As usual Mollie arrived early (unlike me!), came with all the outfits we'd discussed, and was immediately ready to go. It was an early start, and very cold, but Mollie never complained once.

It is always fun shooting with Mollie, and we got some great shots in three different sets in the couple of hours we had. It is nice to see the progress that Mollie is making as a model and I hope we can continue to work together.

I would recommend Mollie to any photographer looking for a young, enthusiastic model.

Lovely shoot with Mollie and her mum. We had lots of fun and got some great shots in. I highly recommend and would love to work with her again.

I had my second shoot with Beth today and it was a really enjoyable and successful morning.

The communication before the shoot was good and Beth turned up with a great selection of clothes. As usual she was accompanied by her Mum, who is a pleasure to chat to, but makes a perfect chaperone always staying on the side lines.

Beth has learned a lot in the few months she has been modelling. She takes direction well, but can also pose well on her own. Working with Beth is always fun and always results in some great pictures. I would highly recommend her.

Had the opportunity to work with Bethany today, on a street/urban shoot.

Pre-shoot comms were excellent, Bethany ensuring that details of the shoot were clear. This enabled a well-planned shoot.

On the day, Bethany was early for the shoot, and came very well prepared and ready to begin shooting.

She takes direction well, showed a willingness to take on ideas and work with them to achieve the image. Bethany posed with ease, poise and grace, and for such a young model she demonstrated a keen sense of what felt right for the image. She has a striking look, a great work ethic and brought her own innate energy and vitality to the shoot, working the various locations chosen to achieve the desired outcomes.

Importantly, Bethany was very focussed and did not allow anything to distract her from her posing, vital on a street shoot in a busy city centre.

I’ve saved the best till last; Bethany has a great personality, full of character, and is easy to get on with and begin developing a sound working relationship; she is also clear about her modelling parameters and that comes across so strongly that it bodes well for her future in modelling.

Mention must be made of Berhany’s mum, who chaperoned superbly on the shoot; never intrusive, always in the background, unobtrusive, trusting her daughter and therefore enabling the shoot to go very smoothly indeed.

I am delighted with the images from the shoot, and thoroughly enjoyed working with Bethany.

Bethany is highly recommended.

Finally got a shot with Bethany. The first shoot was postponed due to the weather, so a new date was booked.

All pre shot communications was on line and no issues, Bethany was ready for the shoot and with a selection of outfits that really worked.

She takes direction exceptionally well and was a dream to work with.

Hopefully will be working with her again in the near future.

I had waited a while to be able to shoot with Bethany

We had great comms for over a month beforehand, but when the day came Beth, was there on time, well early, ready to go.

She had bought several outfits that were just perfect and we worked through a few different sets and ideas

She is relaxed and great fun to work with. She needs just light direction, producing an easy flowing shoot and of course always looks wonderful.

The time passed rather quickly and I was sorry when we had to finally stop.

I have no hesitation in recommending this amazing and talented young lady.

Beautiful model and simply lovely person. Highly recommended 5 star *****

Had another great shoot with Bethany.

On time as always & great communications - Bethany has a desire to succeed & is always very enthusiastic about each shoot we do.

This time we took Bethany to some ruins with a big dress & headdress & she looked fab. Then back to the studio for some underwater frozen ice shoot.

It was a hot day & we knew the ice would melt very quickly, so it was important to get all the test shots done, so we were ready to go. Bethany was very patient during this setup & was able to lay there relaxed in a single position for quite some time while we got things just right. We then added the ice & the fun began.....really looking forward to editing some great shots from this set.

After that we cleared up ready for some light painting & we had plenty of great shots & such a fun time with that too.

Always a pleasure to work with Bethany & her mum who helped us with some of the sets when we required it & this worked really well.

Thank you so much - Until next time :)

Bethany contacted me a few months ago, not long after she joined Purpleport. Bethany showed/shows a drive to want to experience as many different shoots as she can. I like to shoot outdoors, and I like to find places to shoot at which are close to model, and/or are at locations which are suitable/relevant to specific model. It took quite a few months, since December for the weather to improve, and for me to find suitable locations and times to be able to feel able to suggest shooting ideas. Anyway, Bethany was happy with my suggestion/ideas, and we finally arranged a compatible shoot date, after some struggling. Our discussions were very detailed about clothing and planned shoot look.

Bethany, arrived with her mom driving, and was very punctual (early). She was ready to shoot, prepared just as we had discussed, also having the changes of tops. Bethany was/is very sweet, fun, and enthusiastic to learn, and was able to follow directions brilliantly, quickly and patiently. Bethany also posed brilliantly without directions, when graffiti wasn't involved. It was great having her mother with us, especially to help with change of top (clothing). Bethany and her mom, are both lovely and down to earth, fellow Black Country folk. I certainly do recommend shooting with Bethany. I will try to think of other shoot ideas, and therefore will hope to shoot again. Although, I acknowledge she is very busy, and in want from others :-).

I had my first shoot with Beth today, and I very much hope it won't be our last.

Pre-shoot comms was great, Beth came fully prepared with all the outfits we had discussed. Her Mum came along too, as chaperone, which is completely reasonable, especially with such as young model. Both Beth and her Mum were easy to speak to and get along with. Although her Mum obviously supports Beth whole-heartedly, she staid a distance away from us while shooting and did not interrupt at all - a perfect chaperone.

Beth is still finding her feet as a model, but she takes direction well and is a very quick learning. Given the chance to do her own thing, she came up with some great poses. Beth is prepared to try new things, within her stated limits, as shown by the fact she happily climbed a tree for the first time and jumped in the water.

Beth has the potential to go far as a model, and I cannot recommend her enough. Thanks Beth for a great morning, and I hope we can shoot again soon.

Had the pleasure of working with Bethany a few days ago during the recent heatwave. We worked to fashion at two different locations.

Pre-comms were excellent.

She arrived on time with her mum as driver and chaperone. After a brief introductory chat she was ready and raring to go. She took direction well and showed an ability to pose herself. She also showed a willingness to learn in order to make progress within the industry.

She has a bubbly personality and this made for two very enjoyable shoots. The five hours flew by and she was as enthusiastic about the last shot as she had been with the first. Due to change of location, we took a midshoot lunch break but apart form that she worked hard for the entire shoot despite the hot weather. All of which is reflected in the images that we produced.

We are already talking about a second shoot and I look forward to this later in the year.

As chaperone, her mum did not involve herself in the shoot and allowed Bethany to very much 'get on with it'. At the end of the shoot, an informal chat showed just how much she is supportive of her daughter.

Can thoughly recommend Bethany, and her mum, to you.

Thank you Bethany (and mum).

Beth is a new model. She was keen to learn and took instruction well. After relaxing in a comparatively short time I was able to create a collection of beautiful images for her and myself. We soon settled into a routine of creating warm and friendly photographs. She has the potential of being a very talented model has she learns more. A pleasant morning's photography with her mom chaperoning.

Fourth shoot with Bethany. Gloucester Cathedral with bang-on light slanting in through stained-glass windows. Put a Nikkor 105 mm F2 DC lens through its paces with fill flash - playing with the defocusing BOKEH effects. Bethany was wonderful. At one stage we had over 50 visitors watching the photoshoot - no pressure then. First time Bethany has modelled in front of total strangers in a very public place. She was great. The same beautiful girl - but one who has shown she can command the lens in front of the masses. So the journey continues. I will post some photos here shortly - but most will be on Behance and 35photo.pro. Likely around shoot No. 8 or 9. Bethany is incredible.

The third shoot with Bethany. We have found our groove and embarked on a journey. Due to work commitments, it has been many years since I worked with cameras. I could not have asked for more from a model. I am edging towards a portrait series using a 5 by 4 inch view camera and BW film. We have started with a D850 and will move to a Pentax 67 and finally to the 5 by 4 inch. Bethany has embraced the concept and my madness with rare good humour, stunning beauty, and the energy of youth. In a world of MUA's and digital enhancement - it takes real strength to turn up, let the camera in close, and not hide behind make-up or digital post-press. I cannot recommend Bethany enough. Her rates are great. And I hope that more main-stream photographers - more attuned to the modern industry, to MUA's and post-press - embrace Bethany and help her along as well. You will not be disappointed.

Great pre-shoot comms, Beth arrived in good time for the shoot with hair and make-up done, ready to shoot. She brought with her a great selection of outfits which matched the theme of Summer Fashion and we added a few sets from the studio too.

Beth is very keen and looks great on camera, she is a lovely young lady to boot. Outfit changes were quick and easy and Beth took what little direction I thought was needed. A great attitude, and I have to say beautiful natural hair, and not least those sparkling blue eyes there is a lot here to like. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable shoot and I would happily work with Beth again. Needless to say I am more than happy to recommend Beth to all. A fine young lady with great potential.

Apex Photography Telford

Had another great shoot with Bethany. Her pre comms are always spot on so we know exactly what we will be doing & always arrives on time with makeup one to a high standard.

We did some gelled work at my studio & Beth followed direction very well. We then moved on to a princess dress with custom made head dress. Beth looked great in this & we shot it on a couple of different backdrops. I also have to mention Beths hair looked awesome in these :)

We also did a few fashion style shots before moving on to our final set which was a green dress & shadows. Nail it in no time.

Beth is an absolute pleasure to work with & we have already arranged another shoot with some some solid plans.

Highly recommended.

A brilliant day with Bethany in the Forest of Dean. Our plans of an outdoor shoot in several elegant dresses were changed abruptly by the weather — grey, over-cast and rather cold. So instead we drove around scouting locations, took some solid tests shots, and had a Grand Day Out. Bethany amazed me once again. I doubt you will find a nicer person. No longer a little shy or reserved — she seized every moment, wind tussling hair, and commanded my attention. Bethany has a natural beauty that she does not yet fully appreciate. An absolutely wonderful day with one very special lady.

An amazing shoot with Bethany. Bethany has a burning desire to become a successful model — this is reflected in the total professionalism, focus and energy she brings to a shoot. She listened intently to what I wanted and input creatively in a very constructive way. But what set Bethany apart was the way she evolved throughout the day — relaxing into a most beautiful lady full of future dreams. From that moment onwards she connected to the camera and engaged with me as if we had known each other for a long time. The start of a great collaboration. I have 4 more shoots with Bethany already agreed. I highly recommend Bethany.
